    Put my cell # on the No Call List before it was activated. No land line for about 12 years now. What for? And I don't give that # out.

    There are a few that get through on my work phone, and I mess with them if I have the time. Act real interested, get everybody all exited...
    Then make my "needs" rather confusing. Supervisor gets involved, and guess what? Waste more than 10 minutes, and they never call back.

    Watch Crank Yankers for Inspiration.

    After I stop doing what I'm doing, or have to get up to answer the phone the damage has already been done.
    It's about me getting something out of it.
    I'm looking forward to the next call so I can try my latest scheme. If they even suspect their calls are amusing you they will stop immediately.

    Panasonic to the rescue. Note the "call block" feature (but it only stores 30 numbers).

    Yeah, I gotta pay extra. I'll just enjoy jerkinem off more than they're doin me.

    Got a call from the NRA today and was given a Wayne LaPiere recording to listen to. Hung up on poor ol Wayne.

    When someone asks for you or the head of the house, ask who's calling. If you don't the response say "He's out in the barn, I'll get him" and immediately clunk the phone down on a hard surface & leave it for 20 mins.

    'Bout 10 years ago, my daughter bought me a CID device as a present. We didn't have the service so instead of the potential of breaking her little heart (she'd laugh at that concept today), we added the 'feed' to make it work. Best damn thing she ever bought me.

    For those of youse who play with the people... no probs here at all. I prefer building walls. Same thing, different hobby.

    I'm on the bail out list for our landline and mobile phones for that.
    Any firm that does call me gets fined 100K if i put them through the legal system.
    ( law here)
    Once you are on the list no unsollicitated phonecalls of any sort are allowed for sale or sollicitating busines.
    Due to the high fine the system works.
